6 months ago I borrowed a friend £300 and they promised to pay me back.
I didn't pressure them and mentioned it after 5 months ..to be told "I can't right now"
This person now has plenty of money(I won't go into detail how but she does)
She said she would give me them on her pay day (28th )
Pay day came and went and she didn't give me a penny and said she would have to take it from the kids school uniform money and did I want her to do it.
Whilst the day before uploading pics of new trainers she bought herself and designer glasses.

We bought concert tickets and she put them on her mums credit card £100 in June.
I said great il pay on my pay day.
My pay day came and she asked for the £100
I was fuming and said "just take it out of the £300 you owe me and just give me £200

All hell broke loose calling me a thief and told her mum I was refusing to pay her
Writing all over Facebook how you can't trust anyone blah blah

Aibu ?

Most of us don't though. No point replying to a thread that is months old as the issue will likely have been sorted. It is a waste of time.

Yeah well I do usually check the date but sometimes I forget. Sometimes old thread titles come up if you are on a similar one. If you look further up the comments I wasn't the first person to comment 7 months later. So why are you having a go at me? Should be them.

I haven't 'had a go at you'. I merely pointed out that you enjoying resurrecting old threads is annoying for others. Why take the time and effort to respond to a long abandoned thread. Waste of time.
